.

add current directory as superdir to searchlist which is the default if no -I option was given.

--output=FILE

put output in FILE (default acinclude.m4)

print name of directory with subdirs holding m4 files

--verbose

don't be silent

--version

print version number, then exit

Note that unlike aclocal the subdirectories (!!) of the acdir-path are searched for files - the default will find locals as ./*/*.m4 and always search for ac-macros installed as share/aclocal/*/*.m4 which may include the macros from ac-archive or from packages that chose to install multiple files into a subdirectory of share/aclocal. The tool will warn at unresolved symbols starting with AX_ just as the original aclocal program did warn at unresolved macros with AC_.
